Exactly Robert. Pure mountain biking with no bull. The rough and the smooth. Not just the best downhills. I like the viewer to feel like they are on the ride with me. Welcome to the channel. Hope you enjoy
Shame it didn't go to plan mate, still a good morning/ afternoon ride in the Dales & i'm glad you had the willpower to go right to the top as it means I never have too :D My 'accident' detection went off for the first time a couple of weeks ago when all i'd done was slow to a stop for a quick breather where my mates had stopped, nothing abrupt. I wondered what the hell it was as when I have actually had an off its never set it going, luckily I hadnt put in a contact or my partner sister would have full on panicked & probably called the local MRT :D I still think my favorite Dales straight up & down a hill ride (although a slight loop) is Great Shunner Fell through Cotterdale & ending at Hardraw. Cheers for posting this.
Great video Andy and some lovely scenery as always in Yorkshire 😁 when you got to the transmitter it almost looked like the one on Shatton moor in the Peak District
Nice video. Often consider whether that BW up past Mossdale is doable in a dry spell, then I look at Google Earth! I generally go up the climb where you went wrong and round to Grassington that way. PS it will be cheaper to stick a smaller chainring on than spend on a new mech and cassette!
Already run a 30. 28 would make all the other gears 2 light. New cassette would be exactly the same but with an easier 1st gear. Need to replace anyway as it’s worn. Had the new cassette 2 months now. And it’s amazing to climb with. ( this vid was filmed in aug)
You can see it's a British channel when riding speed doesn't change in wet conditions. I would've crawled over those wet rocks and you just kept riding like it's dry.
Ha ha. Great message Marko. Made me laugh. Yes I attack just the same in the wet as the dry as it’s always wet here. And you just get used to it. I actually prefer riding in wet conditions though.
4 mile of climbing wow 😬, do you use the twinloc system much on big climbs? Another great video, just sitting down to me coffee while kids are in bed and this pops up to watch 😁
Hi mark. I don’t have twinloc anymore as I upgraded the suspension. And just have it in open mode all the time. Open mode on the fox dpx2 is just a little firmer than the middle setting on twinloc
Some times when exploring you find a gem and sometimes you don't. So are you not impressed with your garmin was thinking of getting a 530 mainly for the road bike.
That’s right rich. If you don’t try something you don’t know. My Garmin is amazing. It’s just the accident detection is a little sensitive. And if you don’t stop it in 20 seconds it texts my parents and girlfriend that I’ve crashed. It just needed turning off. The 530 is a great device. I’ve just bought the 1030 plus. Loving it.
I was wondering why it was peeping at you. I have a 530 and haven’t found anything wrong with it yet. My main problem is I don’t understand all the functions yet
I thought the descent was worth the climb. It isn't steep down, but then again, it isn't steep up. Views from the ascent are good, but weather changes rapidly up there, so beware. We got boiled , drenched, dehydrated, frozen and boiled again.
Game changing. I wouldn’t be able to do the rides I do without it. The 820 is pretty cheap now and still a good device. But if you don’t mind splashing the cash the 830 or 1030 plus are great
Great stuff as usual Andy. I've walked up there (via Conistone Dib) but never ridden it. You may be interested to read about Mossdale Scar's tragic history... darknessbelow.co.uk/remembering-mossdale-fifty-years-on/
Thanks for sharing Andy, finding trails like these are great 👍
I’ve only just come across your channel, this is brilliant. The misery as well as the fun, tell it like it is.

Great video andy , looks like a lovely ride, so much nature if you know what I mean 😁
Thanks for sharing this video. Looks like a good ride. Me and my friends love your videos. 👍👍👍
I realize I'm kind of randomly asking but does anybody know a good place to watch newly released series online ?
@Gustavo Santana Lately I have been using flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
@Gustavo Santana Try FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)

Always the same when exploring. It’s either a hidden gem. Or not so great. I still enjoyed it. All time on the bike is good time.

Thanks 😁
nice that it's not so windy at moment! looks very peaceful up there!
It was 😁
Still a good ride out nice one thanks for sharing. 👍
Nice Mate. Looked a cracking ride. 👍
Nice casual solo ride, looked a bit of a bog fest at the top haha, great vid mate 👍

@@TrailFinder Ah right - thought it looked like a 32. That makes sense.
If It had of been a 32 it would have been a great idea. The new cassette is next Tuesdays video 😁
Nice video mate. That Garmin's alarm is a pain 😂
Thanks mate. Turned it off on the new 1030 plus. You back to normal yet.
Getting better slowly, thanks. A lot better than it was though.
Really good quality video which camera do you use
It’s the hero 9

Cracking ride mate N didnt know you can go to 520%
Thanks mate. Yeah SRAM now do a 52 tooth cassette. Next tuesdays video!!
@@TrailFinder-Wow Im assuming you getting it then? Cant wait for next vid 👊🏻🤟
Had it a couple of months mate. This video was filmed back in August.

What apps do you use to plan your trails
Os maps. Then Strava route planner to build the route for my Garmin
Get the impression the ride down wasn't worth the effort of the ride up 🤔 good narrative that keeps us engaged, nice one 👍
Wouldn’t do it agin but glad I did it. Been wondering what was up there. And know I know.
I thought the descent was worth the climb. It isn't steep down, but then again, it isn't steep up. Views from the ascent are good, but weather changes rapidly up there, so beware. We got boiled , drenched, dehydrated, frozen and boiled again.
What bike computer do you use?
In this vid is the Garmin 820. But now have the new Garmin 1030 plus
@@TrailFinder i definately need one!

@@TrailFinder have you sold your 820?
What mount do you use mate?
Very
Lol, don't think I'll be rushing to ride that one... 😄
😂same. At least I rode it so you don’t have to. Your welcome!
Check out ethirteens new cassette
Thanks George. But already got the 52 tooth SRAM. Had it a few months now and it’s great.
@@TrailFinder ah right fair enough, yeah it is a beast, although fiddly sometimes 😆
